Austin has been a keyboard player for over 30 years and in his teens started writing music. Having written music for a number of bands, he turned to playing in cover bands for most of his career, touring Europe from the Canaries to the Swiss Alps and as far north as the north of Sweden. It wasn't until 2017 that he decided to go back to his passion of song writing. His first ever song he wrote and sang 'Never Gonna Let You Down' was released in March 2017, followed by 'I'm Not Over You'.In both songs, he wrote, played and sang everything, and currently the second song is being played nationwide on Irish radio stations.
